Discovering marvellous Marylebone

Discovering marvellous Marylebone

This is a new walk for 2019.

Marylebone was largely developed in the early 19th century under the guidance of George IV’s favourite architect, John Nash. We will be looking at Marylebone's beginnings and some of the fabulous features of this area. We will see the first location of Thomas Lord’s MCC, Lord Byron’s baptism font, a 'Grotto' school, the street which winds around the original River Tyburn, an artist’s house known as “Turner’s Den” and much more.

So please join me for this fun and friendly day.
